Space Ninja (IRE)
Space Ninja won the Radio Forth Supervan Handicap at Musselburgh in Sep 2024 over 6f-7f on good ground off an official rating of 55. The gelding, who raced nine times between Jun 2023 and Oct 2024, has one win and three places from nine starts, all at Class 6 level. He gained that success on turf, where he has one win from seven runs, and has never scored on all-weather. His last run, at Newcastle in Oct 2024, saw him finish third of eight in a Class 6 handicap off his career-high mark of 58.

A/E compares actual wins with what starting prices implied. "Fair" strips the bookmaker margin from the expectation, so favourites and longshots are judged on the same footing — figures near 1.00 mean the market priced this horse about right.
KTB Speed and Rating
Best recent Speed 99
How fast the horse ran, as points against the day-corrected standard time for its course and distance: 100 is the median GB Class 4 handicap winner on that code; one point is 0.1% of the standard time. A, B or C is how much the day's card could tell us, not how good the run was.
